BBC News Video’s are Now Officially Embeddable

We let you know last month that the BBC would soon be enabling embedding for videos on the BBC News site, today they have (finally) made that officially possible beginning with videos from their Technology section.

Simply roll over the share button on the bottom right corner of the player and you’ll see the “Embed” function available.

As the BBC internet blog point out, there will be some content which won’t be able to be viewable internationally so may be worth double checking with friends abroad before embedding a particular video into a blog post.

As we mentioned previously, there is a concern regarding the terms of conditions behind the new feature which states that embedding is only permitted on personal websites, which would technically make the below illegal?
